The rich love wealth and believe that if they don't keep accumulating it, the world will collapse. It is this human weakness that Volpone, the old con man, builds on, inventing an unexpected trick to play a sickly old man about to die, who, with the help of his servant and skilful apprentice, tricks the hypocritical but wealthy Venetian citizens into doing anything in the hope of a rich inheritance. How things don't turn out as planned...
